Description: Shifting Sands - Mrs. Romilly Fedden - 1914. Lurking in the background of this story is a tragedy which, however, the reader is little conscious of, and which, until the very denouement, is not connected with a shadow that seems to lurk about the hero. What the reader is more interested in is an orphaned child whom this hero, a rugged, hardworking physician, takes to his home as his ward. Sunny, imaginative Jean abstracts from the atmosphere of her doctor guardian's busy life certain elements which the alchemy of her temperament transforms into "something rich and strange." Fussy, practical Cousin Roxina comes under the spell of her magic; no less so, Dr. John himself. Her development thru her teens, under the tuition of her guardian, ending in [SPOILER], a possibility entirely unreckoned with, is interestingly sketched.
